Wedding in Oaș proposes an anthropological study of the transformation of the rural world in the Romanian region of Oaș, considered a place where traditions are preserved unaltered. Director Cristian Ban brings us a comedy with satirical accents and a cast that excels in female parts played by virtuosos. Roxana Fânață and Ioana Chereji are delicious in their roles of emancipated villagers, offering an image of the rural world and its irreversible transformation in the face of mercantile values.
